Research
My current research interests tend to be focused on 6 areas: 1) identifying the determinants of clinician use of research, 2) developing and evaluating methods to facilitate the local adaptation of clinical practice guidelines, 3) understanding how to increase implementation of practice guidelines and decision support tools, 4) synthesizing theories and models of knowledge translation or planned action, and 5) the KT activities of research funding agencies and researchers.
